US Open: Novak Djokovic's History Chase Rolls On While New York Recovers
NDTV
World No. 1 Novak Djokovic is set to continue his quest for the calendar-year Grand Slam at the US Open despite a deadly storm in New York.
World number one Novak Djokovic was still set to continue his quest for the calendar-year Grand Slam at the US Open on Thursday despite a deadly storm that left New York in tatters. Remnants of Hurricane Ida killed at least eight people and triggered spectacular flash flooding and a rare state of emergency in New York City, flooding subways and turning roads into rivers. Wind-blown rain blew under and through the closed roof at Louis Armstrong Stadium, forcing a match to be finished at Arthur Ashe Stadium, but the swamped venue was clean and had players practicing Thursday morning. "We appreciate your patience as we evaluate the readiness of our site," a US Tennis Association statement said. "The safety of our fans, players and staff is of the utmost importance." Early arriving fans watched players practice on outside courts as the US Open readied for an afternoon start, with Australia's top-ranked Ashleigh Barty opening on Ashe against Denmark's Clara Tauson.
